Agriculture![]() The High Commissioner, Arthur Wauchope, giving inaugural address of the PBS, March 30, 1936. The inauguration ceremony of the Palestine Broadcasting Service took place in March 30, 1936. The speeches were broadcast round the country via radio shops with loudspeakers attached so that as many people could hear the broadcasts as possible, even if they didn't have a radio receiver at home. "...There are thousands of farmers in this country who are striving to improve their methods of agriculture. I hope we shall find ways and means to help these farmers and assist them to increase the yield of the soil, improve the quality of their produce, and explain the advantages of various forms of cooperation..." Agriculture was going to be one of the important corner stones for the PBS at least at the outset. Another important corner stone was music. An odd combination.
